Chef Ranveer Brar reveals that the Salli Boti served at Ashmick’s Snack Shack at Bandra is a favourite because it is sweet, sour and spicy in equal measures
Chef Ranveer Brar travels across the country, visits various places and rediscovers the flavours of India through diverse cuisines in his new show, The Great Indian Rasoi, on Zee Khana Khazana.
In a four-part series exclusively for sunday mid-day, the chef travels to four restaurants across the city that serve authentic regional food and shares with readers his favourite recipes that he tasted at these eateries.
Ashmick's Snack Shack: Pali Junction, Dr BR Ambedkar Road, Bandra West
Chef Brar says, "Food is an extension of the culture it represents. Parsi food, just like all other cuisines, is one such window to the Parsi way of living. The flavours in Parsi cuisine are inspiring for chefs who use Indian flavours to enhance global food," believes Brar.
He adds that there are many reasons to visit Ashmick's Snack Shack. "But it is the Salli Boti served here which makes this place so unforgettable. The dish has the perfect balance of three basic tastes - sweet, sour and spicy," he says.
